Approximately $501,100 is expected to be available to support this project for the base year. Additional funding may be available for additional tasks and/or follow on work in subsequent fiscal years to the successful Recipient/Awardee. Background: Fort A.P. Hill’s Natural Resources Program is responsible for the management of 76,000 acres.

The natural environment will be improved, maintained, and restored by providing erosion control, reducing sedimentation, improving fish/aquatic species passage, hydraulic conveyance, wetland creation, and restoring the overall habitat quality to support ecologically diverse and resilient training lands. Brief Description of Anticipated Work: This effort focuses on providing technical natural resource support to assist Fort A.P. Hill with sustaining military training lands, as identified in the Statement of Objectives.
